A very pretty bird, and the rocks are nicely colored. I like the capture of the swirling water.

I like it. I especially dig the way the ice meets water and the ice looks like polished chrome andthe stump adn reflection are great. The swan could be a touch sharper adn more...saturated? black?

Not sure I like the focus on the tree instead of the swan.

Pretty bird. I know you've heard this by now, but the focus is off. Sorry.

I would have tried framing this picture down and to the right a little bit more, about 5% or so. Otherwise, it's quite nice!

A little soft, especially around the head, but the composition is ok, and here is good detail in the black feathers. I like the texture of what looks like a tree in the top left, though!

pretty bird, but he's out of focus, while the tree in the background is sharper.
